Homemade Freezer Pizza Recipes

HOW TO MAKE FROZEN PIZZAS

Steps:

• Make your dough, or thaw your store bough dough. Spray pans with non-stick spray. Then preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and roll it out to fit your pizza pans. Brush with about 1 teaspoon oil and bake for 10-12 minutes. You want it baked about half way through. It will look dry on top but won't be browned.
• Set aside and let cool to room temperature (15-30 minutes).
• Spread your sauce on, top with your meat and cheese.
• Wrap it in plastic wrap and then tin foil to protect from freezer burn.
• Label it with the name and when it was made! Include the baking instructions: "Bake at 425 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown."
• Freeze it up to 3 months.
• When ready to serve, heat oven to 425 degrees F and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cheese is melted.

BAKE-FROM-THE-FREEZER PIZZAS

Steps:

• Make up the bread dough following pack instructions, and transfer to an oiled bowl to rise for about 1 hr.
• Knock back in the bowl by squashing all the air out of the dough with your fist. Divide the dough into 6 and roll each one on a lightly floured surface to a circle about 18cm in diameter. Put dough you're not using under a damp tea towel or oiled cling film to stop it drying out.
• Put the pizza bases on large oiled baking sheets - you may need 2 or 3. Spread 1 tbsp sauce or passata on each base, then scatter on the basil, tomatoes, mozzarella and Parmesan (or whatever you fancy). You can freeze the pizzas now, if you like, on the baking sheet, wrapped in cling film. Or if eating straight away, heat oven to 240C/220C fan/gas 9. Cook for 8-12 mins, until crisp and golden. To cook from frozen, remove the cling film and heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Bake for 10-14 mins until crisp and golden.
